The first settlers who came to Flower Mound were attracted by the high quality of soil and the opportunities for prosperous farms. These individuals took advantage by raising cotton, corn and wheat. The area was considered part of the great American Black Land Prairie that spanned from Canada to Rio Grande and from the Rockies to Mississippi. Today, only 1,000 acres of the original 20 million remain.

The Peters Colony named the town after a large mound covered with Indian paintbrush, which originally consisted of three small communities established in 1853.

The steady population lasted throughout the first four decades of the 20th century, allowing the region to become a substantial farming and cattle-raising community.
